To all who have been posting on the thread about the McCalls article, I want to apologize for my posts. It has been brought to my attention that I was rude, and said things I shouldn't have. I got way too passionate and upset about the whole thing, and I made a complete fool of myself. The topic is one that upset a lot of people and I added to it. I am sorry. You are a great bunch of ladies and I don't want to be a sore on anyone's finger. I hope everyone involved can forgive me and I hope to control myself in the future.

Girl, I will bookmark this note, and refer to it for a nice apology template when I put my foot in my mouth and need a nice way to pull it back out!

All's well.
God Bless.

I dunno....I don't think you were rude. You're just saying what lots of folks are thinking.

No apology neccessary, you spoke your mind. I appreciate your frankness and passion on this issue.

I've reread the entire thread, especially your posts, and I'm not sure why this was brought to your attention as rude but not to the rest our attentions? I, for one, really enjoyed the back and forth discussion. While heated, it seemed to me like we had a good discussion without swearing or defaming anyone. I spent a lot more time on the board for those few days, eager to see what someone else's opinion was. I would hope that heated discussions such as these are not discouraged as long as we all explain ourselves clearly without mudslinging.

So if you have to apologize, so do I. I'm sorry. (No I'm not - it was fun!)
